>>, I am ... writing a tut that ... will elucidate the path that an Access developer should take into [C Sharp] world Arthur, I am willing to learn, but I don't know what I could develop in C Sharp that large clients are going to pay me for, or that their IT departments will consider me worth the risk to contract with, given their existing relationships and established DPMM beaurocracies. The client I see most often contracts mainly with large low cost country vendors, with most of the resources being "off-shore". Yes, those resources are hard to deal with, however they have integrated themselves very well with the Multiglom Corp. and they talk the language of "cheap" very well, which is all Multiglom wants to pay. The software is not very good in my unqualified estimation, but no doubt there are surprises. I will never compete with these vendors, so shouldn't I just be sticking with Excel and Access, where I can get very close to the data that my clients are fighting with, building small and nimble systems? I cannot possibly compete with hungry programmers in India/China/Ireland/Afghanistan/YouNamitstan)
